Okay, to make up for skipping a chapter yesterday, I am posting two chapters tonight!! Thank you so much for continuing to read and comment and give me feedback. All of you!! And thanks to those who have submitted their entries for the Louboutin writing challenge. So fun! Song and links below…
Song for Chapter 25 (Heart of Doing Business), Million Dollar Man, Lana del Rey (it’s as if the words were written for this chapter) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B5H467MnzVs
Thank you everyone for following, reading, writing to me, commenting, and sharing this journey with me. As always, you make the trip worth it. The painting below is titled Snow Stars – given Elisa’s last name, I found it appropriate for this chapter. See fun challenge below (thanks Analeyna!)
Fun Challenge: A couple of you liked the Marine Corps Louboutins on my Pinterest enough to suggest that we all try to write a little snippet about Elisa, Aiden, or ourselves involving the shoes (below). It doesn’t have to be long. No rules. I don’t have prizes except to offer that I write a snippet of 30N or 90D (except the ending) for the winner. So this is just for fun. If you feel up to it, here is the SHOE! I wish I owned this! Let me know, and we can post the entries here. Or you can do it anonymously too, if you’re shy. Either way, you’re wonderful!
Hey everyone, last day of vacation here (Boo!). To delay the Monday, post-vacation abyss, I am posting the “soundtrack” (does that word work outside of the movie world?) for 30 Nights. So many of you have asked for and recommended songs over the last few months, and I have adopted some of those recommendations. Thank you so much for thinking about 30N in so much detail!! My goal with the list of songs was to have music from various parts of the world that represent all the diverse readership of 30N, but also the immigration theme. And of course, I tried to pick songs that have resisted time because time is such a big issue in 30N/TMM. Hope you all like it!! Lots of love (while trying my best to banish Sunday blues). Feel free to guess which songs go with each moment from 30N/TMM. xo, Ani
